I'm tired of Portugal
this small country, not bigger
than a hamlet in Spain
their worldview is what

DARK ENTRAILSChange vomited dark entrails
Of the bald vulture on my clan;

Poetry's SoupStumbling along the worn down pine,
Clamoring like a babe against floor and a table leg
I found the stool to shame all other stools.
Propping my bony bottom atop
Like a laggardly old lion,
Done with denunciation,

We carry the precious or is it yet to gather
